33 Backstop Solutions Testimonials

“With multiple PMs, we saw the benefit of having a centralized solution for investor management from the start. The system was very easy for everyone to get. There was no intensive training time, and we really appreciate all the help we got from the Backstop team as we were starting out. They were able to show us how intuitive data entry is in Backstop, and now we log everything! Not only does this help us leave a historical audit trail to ensure we stay compliant, but it’s also just good business sense to have everything in one place for everyone on my team to access at any time.”

Backstop has empowered us with a better way to collaborate and synthesize critical information on a timely basis.

Everything our investment team does that touches our investment activities is now facilitated by the Backstop platform. It has become an essential tool in our investment process.”
